Yes there is ALOT you can do! First off when u shower with hot water it makes the mites more active. I have bought " 20 mule team -borax laundry booster" from walmart for 3.00$ and sprinkled all over my carpet bc once the mites are on the carpet this stuff suffocates them. I also mixed it in a sprayer with hot water and sprayed all over my furniture. I also am using it in my laundry. Constantly clean ur laundry and never use anything more than once bc the eggs and mites will reinfest u. This is gonna be a tough one bc ur in college and I don't know ur availability to washer/dryer. I am also using tea tree oil from wal mart for 8$ or I saw it at Albertsons buy one get one for 11$ good deal as well as clove bud oil from the vitamin shoppe and I recently tracked down some neem oil ( dyna gro brand) from a hydroponic garden store that is 100% pure.been oil is what u really want bc it stops the mites from growing and stops them from reproducing!! Yay!! I will be mixing the oils together to make a spray for after baths. I use the borax in baths at night and spray with peroxide while in the bath as well. May sting a Lil if you have been itching an have open sores. Try ur best not to itch as the mites get under your nails and inhabit your body the next place u touch. These things suck and are gigot contagious. I used the permithin cream twice but once I read the side effects I trashed it and It didn't work for us. I am getting more results now. I am also waiting on a sulfer rx from out pharmacy. We have been taking ivermectin pills and those seems to help a bunch too. We bought a plastic mattress cover for like 12$ bc these things can live for 72 hours without a host to feed on. Ew. And we also bought trash bags for our pillows and place our cases over them bc this is getting so expensive. I was the bedding every day. Ok I cheated once and put it in the dryer for an hour . But so far so good. I'm taking every measure possible and with you in college it's so easy to spread and u may keep reinfesting yourself. If you live in campus you may want to tell them so they can try to stop this . Think I covered it all if not let me know ;)

Try taking baths at night for 30minutes before bed this will allow you to get some sleep and ease the scabies symptoms. You can add either a cup of epsom salts or even half a cup of baking soda. Both are great to bath in and will help heal your skin and make it soft once again!
